Windows 10- Reset to Factory Settings- Trusted Platform Module (TPM)

[SoniaM]

I was informed by (HP Staff Member) to do a Reset to Factory Settings.

I have done this a few times on my laptop- so I knew what I had too do.

I selected the Option: Remove Everything- Re,oves all of your personla files,apps and settings.

Once it got to 100%- this Message NOW show's up- Black Screen- In the Blue screen it states.

"The following configuration change was requested to this computer's  Trusted Platform Module (TPM):

Clear TPM

Warning: Clearing erases information stored on the TPM. You will lose all created keys and access to data encrypted by these keys.

Press F1: Accept                  Press F2: Reject

Can anyone tell me "What To Do" to fix this ?

This is a great location to get assistance! I read your post and see that you are getting TPM warning message. I would like to help you resolve this issue. 

• TPM is Trusted Platform Module.
• It saves all the credentials of the computer like BIOS password.
• If you accept it you will lose all the credentials in the computer.
• And it will be like a factory reset BIOS.
• If that is fine with you, please go ahead and clear it.
• (Note: Please take backup of your computer before making any changes)

I hope it helps and if you feel I have answered your question and concerns,

Please mark this post as a solution accepted and Kudos would also be appreciated.

Cheers.
